The Sony XG300 Bluetooth speaker is a compact and versatile audio device that delivers impressive sound quality in a portable package. I recently had the opportunity to experience this speaker firsthand, and here's what I found:
Design:
The design of the Sony XG300 is sleek and modern, with clean lines and a compact form factor that makes it highly portable. It features a durable build quality, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The speaker's minimalist aesthetic blends well with any environment, whether placed on a shelf at home or taken along on a picnic.
Sound Quality:
Despite its small size, the Sony XG300 produces surprisingly robust sound. The speaker is equipped with dual full-range drivers that deliver clear highs and mids, along with a passive radiator for enhanced bass response. The audio output is well-balanced, making it suitable for a wide range of music genres. While it may not match larger speakers in terms of volume, the XG300 performs admirably for its size.
Connectivity:
Connecting to the Sony XG300 via Bluetooth is quick and hassle-free. The speaker supports Bluetooth 5.0 technology, ensuring a stable wireless connection and minimal latency when streaming music from compatible devices. Additionally, the XG300 features NFC (Near Field Communication) for even quicker pairing with compatible smartphones.
Battery Life:
One of the standout features of the Sony XG300 is its impressive battery life. On a full charge, this speaker can provide up to 12 hours of continuous playback, allowing you to enjoy music throughout the day without needing to recharge frequently. The USB-C charging port ensures fast and convenient charging when needed.
Additional Features:
The Sony XG300 comes with built-in microphone functionality, enabling hands-free calling when paired with a smartphone. The speaker also supports voice assistant integration, allowing you to control playback and access other functions using voice commands.
Overall Impressions:
The Sony XG300 Bluetooth speaker is a great choice for those seeking a compact and portable audio solution without compromising on sound quality. Whether you're looking to enhance your home entertainment setup or enjoy music on the go, the XG300 offers a compelling combination of performance and convenience at an affordable price point. While it may not be the loudest speaker in its class, its balanced sound signature and versatile features make it a solid option for everyday use.
In conclusion, if you're in the market for a portable Bluetooth speaker that delivers impressive audio performance in a stylish and compact design, the Sony XG300 is definitely worth considering.

Hi Happyguy,
Awesome! We're glad that you like the lighting function, connectivity, and sound quality of the speaker. With the 25 hours of battery life and IP67 water and dust resistance of the XG300 wireless speaker, you can enjoy a whole day of party from the beach, to the park, and to the pool. Stream anywhere and get things booming with Party Connect where you can combine up to 100 compatible X-series wireless speakers with BLUETOOTH technology and sync your music so everyone dances to the same beat. Make sure to download the Sony | Music Center app to Optimize audio settings, select playlist, cue the next song, and control Party Connect. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Great Speaker. I got it on sale and was not too sure about what to expect. The speaker is awesome, it can handle large space and fill them with perfect sound without any problems, it also works great for smaller spaces. The base is deep. It pairs up to multiple devices and switching between them is super easy. Battery lasts forever and you can charge your phone or other devices with it. Very well built and looks amazing.

Very good Bluetooth speaker

Very good for a Bluetooth speaker, only a few areas for improvement.
-The sound quality is very good, though it tends to be bass heavy at low volumes and there’s only one audio mode that allows it to be turned back. There’s no equalizer for the Livesound mode and Audioclarity+ is only available with Megabass on. It does have much better midrange than most Bluetooth speakers I’ve listened to.
-Livesound does provide a fairly convincing stage depth effect when positioned in front of the listener properly.
-It tends to rollover easily on uneven surfaces.
-Both apps could use some design and usability improvements, but they both work.
-Even with autostandby on, it will remain on and connected to my iPhone indefinitely, even with no audio playing.
-The lighting could use more effects and more customizability, and it would be better if it could get brighter when plugged in.

I needed a garage speaker, and this thing is overkill. It sounds pretty good, has plenty of bass, and gets real loud and won't distort at max volume. I rarely find myself charging it and haven't regretted my purchase one time. The range is pretty good. Not astounding, but about what I expect.

I bought this speaker 2 months ago and since then I’ve noticed a few things. This speaker destroys the lows anything hip hop based or alternative will rock these drivers. But when putting on lynyrd skynyrd I noticed that the guitar wouldn’t come through as much as the kicker on the drum. I found the simply going into the eq on the Sony app fixed this issue. The battery was my main worry as I have had jbl speakers in the past that die quicker then others , but the battery on the Sony XG 300 is the best I’ve had on a Bluetooth speaker so far. Good work Sony!

I have brought this speaker with me to the beach a few times with a group of friends. It has been able to withstand sand getting kicked at it and some light splashing. I purchased this speaker specifically for outdoor use and I couldn’t be happier. It gets as loud as I need it to, has decent bass, and it keeps a charge well. Able to get 8+ hours of use out of it with one charge. Whenever it’s not being used outdoors, I regularly use it in my office for background music. Highly recommend this speaker!

WOW! Without a doubt the best portable speaker out-there! Music is so crisp and clear while also packing a punch at loud volumes. The bass boost is so great, as it does not over take the audio at any point. As a BONUS, it was on sale for a great price for what you get.

This speaker is a great speaker for bringing to a party or for personal use or even to just watch a movie or show with. It has good base and volume. Although if bringing to a park I wouldn't really recommend it more for closed spaces than open ones.
